It's Natasha again! I am addicted to characters, but I'm trying to stick with these four. We'll see how long my willpower holds out. :O)
Anyway . . . Chloe Wilkes
bio here. Olivia's sister, and the youngest member of the infamous Wilkes family. Pertinent facts:
+Slytherin, Class of '79
+Pureblood - not the most elite of families, but not completely obscure, either.
+Excelled in Astronomy which is one of the few things it's possible to get her talking about.
+Loves her home in Cornwall which is another thing she can be induced to talk about with some effort.
+Has nowhere near her sister's self confidence, but will pretend she does.
+Very anxious to be liked, but not very good at it. She tended to come off as a bit of a snob and a know-it-all in school.
+
Will be respected, if she can't be liked.
+Soon to be a fresh new intern in the Department of Mysteries - the which she will inform her sister of shortly, if Olivia hasn't heard from other sources first.
+Fights regularly with her sister about
everything, but will defend her to the death from anyone else if necessary.
+Determined to salvage her family's reputation by being the perfect citizen.
+Even more determined to bring down Voldemort because everything that's wrong with her life is
all his fault. This is something she will not talk about at all.
+A plotter.
+Very, very focused when she wants something.
+Purist more by upbringing than anything else. She doesn't dislike muggleborns, but she's never questioned that blood matters, either.
+Really quite harmless, despite the fact that she'd like to think otherwise.
Your characters might know her if:
+They were in Slytherin between 1972 and 1979.
+They know her sister Olivia.
+They were a member of the DMLE involved in investigating/arresting her parents.
+They were at Hogwarts between 1976 and 1979 - she was pretty unmemorable to most non-Slytherins before that.
+They belong to an old pureblood family.
+They work in the Department of Mysteries.
+They work somewhere else in the Ministry.
